The world's largest stablecoin issuer is expanding its supply once again!
On Monday, Tether minted an additional 1 billion USDT on the Tron blockchain, confirming the growing demand for stable digital assets.
Tether Increases USDT Supply on Tron
According to on-chain data, Tether minted the new 1 billion USDT on the Tron network just two hours ago.
Since the beginning of 2025, the company has issued around 12 billion USDT on Tron, bringing the total supply on this blockchain to $71.71 billion.
USDT is increasingly used for cross-border payments, OTC trading, and in the DeFi sector, further boosting demand.
Market Dynamics Indicate Rising Investor Interest
The steady growth of USDT on Tron reflects preparations for greater market volatility and a general increase in trading activity.
Geopolitical tensions and trade policies linked to President Trump may also influence this trend.
At the time of publication:
USDT holds a market cap of $147 billion.24-hour trading volume rose to $51.7 billion (+10.38%).
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino confirmed that the newly minted tokens are currently authorized but not yet issued, ready for future transactions or chain swaps.
Tether’s Impact on the Entire Crypto Market
Analysis by CryptoQuant shows that each increase in USDT supply since late 2022 has been followed by a rise in Bitcoin's price.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading around $94,700, having increased by 8.32% over the past week.
Tron’s Boom: New Accounts and Transactions Break Records
The minting of the new USDT billion has helped Tron grow rapidly:
In the last 24 hours, 175,374 new accounts were created, bringing the total to over 303 million.Transfer volume rose by $11.2 billion, reaching a cumulative $18 billion.24-hour transactions exceeded 10.2 billion.
On the downside, Tron's TVL (Total Value Locked) fell by 1.08% to $20.24 billion.
The price of TRX dropped by 1.43%, currently trading around $0.2465.
Tether Prepares a US-Only Stablecoin?
Tether also hinted that it is considering creating a special stablecoin dedicated solely to the U.S. market due to new American regulations.
According to Paolo Ardoino, the company is ready to adapt if future laws create a competitive environment for stablecoins.
Ardoino emphasized that the current USDT will not be modified to comply with U.S. laws, but a new "domestic stablecoin" could be introduced as a settlement currency.
Available information suggests that President Trump sees dollar-backed digital assets as a strategic tool for the future of the U.S. and plans to implement new rules for foreign stablecoin issuers.
